【Course Objectives】

Students will be able to talk about Japan in English.

【Course Contents】

This course is mainly a discussion class, in which participants will talk about Japanese culture through films. The main objective is for students to be able to deepen their understanding of key cultural concepts of the assigned readings from our textbook, The Japanese Mind, so that they can talk about them fluently in English and explain them in detail to people who are unfamiliar with them. This spring semester, we will focus on the sub-themes of Japanese traditional craft, art, and architecture. Thus, this class might be of interest for students who are majoring in psychology, community and human service, or tourism; and also for those planning to study abroad or work in an international environment. For the readings and films, guided worksheets will be provided. Finally, there will be two required presentations throughout the term - one “field trip” done individually, and the other with a group.
